Here's one which was his response to a column about how we all tend to connect - and identify - with those elusive, yet somehow familiar shadows on the screen, one of whom for me back then was ... Woody. Enjoy.

forever, woody
As 2011 crept away, I elected to go through my movie paraphrenalia and do a little purging. Among what I call my "celebrity letters," I found five from Woody Allen, four of them handwritten (and one on legal-size yellow paper). They all brought back memories of the Allen movies I reviewed and how wonderful it felt to be validated by the filmmaker.

Very cool.
WOW. I am so impressed.
What I could read of it, I loved, but could you give us a transcript - I got lost at the end. What a treasure, though.
Hi Joan-
Here's what Woody Allen wrote in his letters:
Dear Joe-
Found your article funny & touching. I identified with you, identifying with me - since of course I identify with the following: Brando, Sinatra, Louis Armstrong, Willie Mays, Sugar Ray Robinson, Chekov and for some strange reason Tracy Austin.
Oh, well...
Best,
Woody
